TRENTON — Gov. Chris Christie plans to head to Florida on Wednesday in his role as head of the Republican Governors Association.

A spokesman for the association, Jon Thompson, confirmed that Christie would be heading to the Sunshine State for political events.

Thompson could provide no further details, but said he would have more information shortly.

Despite controversies at home, Christie has been a boon to the organization, which raises money for GOP gubernatorial candidates and incumbents. Since taking the helm in November, Christie has helped raise more than $33 million.
